One thought on “Canon iR 2016 printer not working in Ubuntu”

Canon imageRunner devices can be accessed using the CodeHost BrightQ software for Linux. Go to http://www.codehost.com and look up your IR model.

There are a few IR models that the software doesn’t support, so you will want to look for yours specifically. As of 1.5 years ago, the 2016 was not supported, but all that may have changed by now (I used to work for Canon).

The install is easy, and when it’s done, you will see all of your options, finisher included.
